Have an Aerial tower. Now that the 650- RGB's are about to arrive for the twin bullets what the heck is the best way to get yet another set of wires down?? The installed harness has 8 wires which are all being used by the 4 speakers.

Install an identicle harness on the opposite side?

Since I believe I can hook all the RGB wires together inside the tower... Maybe - all I really think I need is essentially 1 sheilded wire so I was thinking of trying to drill holes much like the existing harness close to the existing holes maybe and use a rubber grommet of sorts I can plug the drilled hole and feed the smaller wire through??

Between the battery relocation,switch, image.jpeg ACR, 3 amps, new speakers I may be in over my head.

You can attach the wires to the end of the existing ones and pull them through.
Or, pull a string through that way and then attach two sets of wires since you are adding and then pull it back down.

I haven't had that much luck doing this on my tower but finally got everything except my light for top of the tower. Can't seem to run those wires through!

It's Aerials wakeboard tower wiring harness that has 8 wires in it. My issue is - I need more wires... Probably have to do the same thing on the other side
